Yep. Republicans (of all stripes) campaign as a moderate but rule as a RWer. BlueCaliDem Sep 2014 #11

Correct. Unlike his dad, Rand is a 100% phony. He flips to neocon positions in a hearbeat. Faryn Balyncd Sep 2014 #23

Yep, a Hillary presidency will separate the sexists from the racists. MohRokTah Sep 2014 #28

No question about it. In fact I suspect Hillary will get even more hateful barbs thrown at her still_one Sep 2014 #31
